Australian cricket legend Brad Haddin has advised that India cricket star Virat Kohli take time out from the game. He claimed that skipper was becoming too aggressive, choosing to hail the style of stand-in captain Ajinkya Rahane when Kohli missed the fourth Test due to shoulder injury.

Haddin says the visible presence of Rahane contrasted from Kohli’s fierry demeanour, adding that it was obvious in the series. Kohli’s injury would force him to miss the start of the IPL but there is a planned assessment in the second week of the April to see if he could return. (more…)

Singh showed why he is termed one of the cleanest hitters of the ball when both sides met on Saturday.
